Liverpool is literally about to scrap a massive piece of Beatles history because they claim "no one wants it." The mast of the Salvor ship, the iconic backdrop for the first-ever official photo of the Fab Four after Ringo Starr joined in 1962, is currently sitting in a yard waiting to be sold for spare metal. How is this even possible?
We’re talking about a city that basically lives on Beatles tourism, yet the council can’t find a single spot for this landmark? They almost made the same mistake by trying to demolish Ringo’s childhood home and the original Cavern Club years ago. With Paul and Ringo still releasing albums and collaborating on songs about their Liverpool roots, letting this mast be melted down feels like a massive insult to their legacy.
Surely a museum or a local business can step in before this piece of heritage is gone forever?
It's the frame of music history! 🎸🚢 #culture #music #history
